The department offers a comprehensive curriculum of undergraduate and graduate degree programs and courses that emphasize the importance of education in the prevention of personal and family problems related to lifestyle and health behavior. Six areas of specialization are available to the student:
School and college health education is concerned with programs that promote the health of children and young adults in schools and colleges. This area traditionally includes courses in alcohol, tobacco, and other drug abuse; emergency care; human sexuality; consumerism; and other related areas. At the undergraduate level, students can study health teaching in a joint program with the School of Education. A cumulative GPA of 2.3 is required for admission to this area.
Public health education promotes the health of the general public. Students acquire the skills to develop, implement, and evaluate health education and promotion programs in community, occupational, and clinical settings. In 1997 the Master of Public Health program received accreditation in Public Health Education from the Council on Education for Public Health. A cumulative GPA of 2.3 is required for admission to this area.
Occupational safety (undergraduates) and safety management (graduates) develop the skills and professional competencies for safety and risk management of both public and private organizations. A cumulative GPA of 2.5 is required for admission to this area.
Human development/family studies examines growth and development throughout the lifespan. Family studies examines more specifically roles within the family, and how the members of diverse kinds of families interact with one another and with greater society. A cumulative GPA of 2.5 is required for admission to this area.
Nutrition science integrates the basic and applied principles of nutrition and related sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and medicine. Students learn to apply nutrition to health promotion. Courses of study include human nutrition, nutritional biochemistry, diet and disease, and food science.

The mission of the Division of Recreational Sports is to provide sport and fitness services for students, faculty, staff, and the public to encourage an active, healthy lifestyle and to enhance a sense of community. This is accomplished by offering diverse sport and fitness opportunities, distinctive facilities and equipment, educational avenues for student development, and leadership to the profession. The division strives to be the most comprehensive, inclusive, and progressive recreational sports program in the country while making participation fun for all.
With two convenient campus locations, the Health, Physical Education, and Recreation Building (HPER) and the Student Recreational Sports Center (SRSC), the division offers a wide variety of programs and services to all participants at Indiana University. Programs are available to accommodate the diverse sports and fitness needs of students with families, people with disabilities, and international students. Opened in 1995, the SRSC is a 137,000-square-foot multipurpose facility, that includes three multipurpose sport areas, a five-court field house with a 1/8-mile elevated running/jogging/walking track, an Olympic-size pool, a diving well with competition towers, ten racquetball/handball courts, four squash courts, two conditioning/weight training rooms, an auditorium, locker rooms, and a fitness consultation room.
The Division of Recreational Sports makes maximum use of all campus sport facilities for aquatic, informal, intramural, club sport, and fitness activities. For students who enjoy recreational activities at their leisure, informal sports hours have been increased during prime time at both the HPER Building and at the SRSC; time scheduled for informal swimming has been increased 300 percent. Equipment check-out is also available at no charge to students with a valid Indiana University identification card. Locker rentals are available at both the HPER Building and the SRSC.
The intramural sports program sponsors men's, women's, and co-intramural tournaments in team, dual, individual, and meet competitions. Sport clinics are offered to help place students on teams, to review game rules, and to teach proper warm-up exercises. Students interested in tournament competition will enjoy the availability of volleyball and basketball courts, as well as a competition court for championship games and special events.
The club sports program offers students more than 45 club opportunities ranging from aikido to fencing to tennis to wrestling. Clubs help students share a common interest in a particular sport, whether the emphasis within the club is social, instructional, or competitive.
For students who enjoy the water, the aquatics program offers three heated, indoor pools and a diving well with competition boards and towers. Noncredit swimming instruction is available. The division also offers lifeguard training sessions and Water Safety Instructor (WSI) sessions for students who want to learn the techniques of water rescue or swimming instruction. With the Olympic-size pool and diving well at the SRSC's Councilman/Billingsley Aquatic Center, the division is able to host NCAA swimming, diving, and water polo competitions. The division also hosts special events such as United States Swim Association state and national swimming events, intramural and club events, and family swim times.

Cadel Evans of BMC won the Fleche Wallone, beating Joaquin Rodriguez of Katusha and Alberto Contador of Astana.
Evans sped past Contador and Rodriguez in the last 100 meters of the one-day classic. ""I've finished second here (in2008). I've finished fourth (in 2009) and I think ninth (in 2005). So it feels great to win here, especially wearing the rainbow stripes of world champion."
With tactical precision, Evans limited his losses on areas where there are steep climbs and forged ahead when the road leveled out. This allowed him to gain momentum among the rest and this brought him first to the finish line. Contador, on the other hand, accelerated too early and continued to maintain his strides but was overtaken by Rodriguez at the 1.3 km climb.
Contador comments on his performance, "I'm happy with my result. It's frustrating to be so close and not win, but I am not a Classics…

Statement Regarding Legality of TabsWhat I have to say...
Posted 17 July 2006 - 11:40 AM
To all "Guitar Tab Universe" visitors:
The company which owns this website has been indirectly threatened (via our ISP) with legal action by the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) as well as the Music Publishers' Association (MPA) on the basis that sharing tablature constitutes copyright infringement. At what point does describing how one plays a song on guitar become an issue of copyright infringment? This website, among other things, helps users teach eachother how they play guitar parts for many different songs. This is the way music teachers have behaved since the first music was ever created. The difference here is that the information is shared by way of a new technology: the Internet.
When you are jamming with a friend and you show him/her the chords for a song you heard on the radio, is that copyright infringement? What about if you helped him/her remember the chord progression or riff by writing it down on, say, a napkin... infringement? If he/she calls you later that night on the phone or e-mails you and you respond via one of those methods, are you infringing? I don't know... but I would really like to know. If anyone has information on this, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Apparently, the NMPA/MPA believes that the Internet may be on the foul side of the legality line they would like to draw here. For me, I see no difference. It's teachers educating students and covered as a 'fair use' of the tablature. The teachers here don't even get paid nor do the students have to pay this website to access the lessons.
An attack on this website is really an attack on every one of you who have told someone (in person, or via the written word, telephone, or e-mail) how you play a song on guitar. And who, especially among small websites, has the deep pockets to fight the NMPA/MPA? They use scare tactics while there is, in fact, no legal precedent on this matter (to the best of our knowledge). If you are interested in expressing your opinion to the NMPA/MPA, contact them via their respective websites. Please do not resort to vulgar language or insults.
Millions of people use the Internet to learn guitar, in one form or another. It appears the NMPA/MPA and their members do not want to support us and help us further our education. To you visitors from outside the USA or UK, can you find your favorite artists' "official sheet music" at your local music store? Even in the United States and United Kingdom, we often can not. The NMPA/MPA have a choice to make: either they support us as aspiring guitarists, or they choose to alienate their customer base. To date, not one sheet music publisher has contacted this website to either inquire as to our activities or to express interest in any type of dialogue or collaboration whatsoever. All we deserve is a cold, indirect, impersonal threat without any explanation? They should embrace new technologies or else become relics of the old economy.
Since I'm now 'worried' about working around tabs at all, I'm in a tough situation! Luckily, I'm fairly confident that if I alone listen to a song and then figure out how to play it by ear, I will then be able to enjoy using that knowledge to practice and improve my guitar playing skills. Is that what is necessary for everyone to do? Work these things out alone? What a sad situation.

The site is obviously not a commercial venture and as you state in your response, this is musicians at every level getting together to help one another become more proficient at what we love to do. We are all sitting in a "Cyber garage" if you will, trying to have a jam session. If anyone will take the time they will see that the tabs offered are sometimes not proffessional and rarely completely wrong, not unlike advise we have all recieved at one time or another. On the whole however, thanks to many people who are truly motivated to helping people improve, I have found this site extremley useful and cannot imagine how anyone could find this offensive.
Posted 17 July 2006 - 01:49 PM
Technically yes, photocopying anything that is in print and under copywrite is illegal. Of course he's not going to be pursued or prosecuted for something so trivial but if the publishers did so wish then they would have every legal right. The tablature available on this site is differnt however as it is each person own interpretations (or so is claimed) and I highly doubt anyone could prove that they were otherwise. Also you really couldn't compare this to Napster. Napster made a serious dent in the profits of the music industry, there's no way sights like this could inflict anywhere near so much fianancial damage.
I realise this makes me sound like I'm on the side of the MPA while I must stress that I am far from that.

I regularly purchase "official" sheet music as well as scan the net for tabs. Let me tell you that I've had much better luck with the folks out there tabbing by ear than with any of the horrible Hal Leonard and others' arrangements of original tunes. Also, for someone who doesn't read music very well, the format of these tabs is a godsend.
It's a shame that the corporate greed monsters are now targeting creative franchises like yours instead of partnering with them. I hope there is someone at NMPA with a few firing neurons left who can figure this out before it's too late.
PS: Never fear, my letter to NMPA will be a little nicer.
Posted 17 July 2006 - 02:36 PM
So, what they are telling me is that my 5th grade band teacher was a criminal for photocopying music to hand out to his students instead of buying a new copy for every student? We are not stealing music here. Sites such as this are a great way to share tablature. I just never thought being a musician would label me as a law breaker. I wonder if anyone at these so called "associations" know that they are loosing credibility? Do they even care? Keep fighting! Oh, wait...we might get in trouble for copying what Napster did by defending our own actions....

Yeah, you're right about the Napster comparison. Sorry, just the only thing I could compare it to at the time.

The cockpit of a half-million-pound aircraft and a nightclub stage certainly seem worlds apart. Yet Lyndsey Goodman, BS'01, is at home in both. During the past decade, Capt. Goodman, an Air Force Reserve pilot who recently began flying for Delta Air Lines, has flown the massive C-17 Globemaster III into combat zones in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as to Germany, Spain and Korea. During those years she also performed regularly at jazz nightclubs in Charleston and Atlanta.
"Flying and singing are completely different," Goodman says. "But there's an artistry to each of them." For Goodman both passions run deep in her family. One grandfather was a self-taught pianist who wrote songs in Nashville as a young man. "The first song I remember him playing for me was 'The Shadow of Your Smile,'" Goodman recalls. "He and my grandmother would always give me albums and tapes for Christmas and, later, when other kids were buying Madonna, I was buying jazz."
Another grandfather was a World War II pilot, and his son, Goodman's father, was a highly decorated pilot in the Vietnam War who later became a commercial airline pilot. "My mom also works for the airlines as a flight attendant," Goodman says. "So it was hard for me not to fly."
It was hard, too, for her not to sing. After graduating from Vanderbilt, Goodman paid for flying lessons by singing in clubs in her hometown of Atlanta. Once she had her pilot's license, she joined the Reserves and became a pilot with the 317th Airlift Squadron at Charleston Air Force Base. She also formed the Lyndsey Goodman Trio, became a fixture in Charleston's jazz scene and recorded two CDs. "There's a release to singing, when everything is in sync and the group is working together," Goodman says. "It's kind of the same with flying when everything works and you're in the moment."
Like her flying, Goodman's singing has taken her to some interesting places. In 2008 she entertained U.S. and Puerto Rican service members at Guantanamo Bay as part of the Band of the U.S. Air Force Reserves' Caribbean tour. That same year Goodman auditioned for American Idol, making it through preliminary rounds and a televised round, and earning praise, although not an invitation to the finals. "I also opened for Wynonna and Naomi Judd at the 50th anniversary of Alaska Statehood at Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska, in 2008," Goodman says. "That was incredible."

Scratches in Vinyl Records |
Scratches in Vinyl Records |

Group: Members Posts: 2 Joined: 11-March 08 Member No.: 51948 |
I've discovered that the sleeves to the records often scratch the record itself, lightly. I know how to avoid those scratches now, but there's one thing that still bugs me: Is there any way at all to get rid of these light scratches in the vinyl? They don't affect the playing, not all of them at least, but they just annoy the heck out of me, and almost every record i have is only pressed in 500 copies, and was sold out a long time ago, and sells for about 150$ + on eBay. Please, help |

That behavior is normal, as there is no real file system on an audio cd to mount.
Obviously windows converts will expect a player to auto start when inserting an audio cd.
"One of it's reasons to be is that it leaves more control in the hands of the user. Polling daemons and services are kept at a minimum."
I agree completely with EyesOnly. Light seems to follow the KISS way of doing things. This is why 6.0 Light has been my distro of choice since A14. I have found the replacement for Puppy.There is a utility that Puppy has that I wish Light had. Pmount or Mut. I like to mount drives when "I" want them mounted. It is nice to use one of those instead of a console.
Pita, did you run "alsaconf" again after installing the new kernel and modules? If not, give it a shot.

Snakes out, hissin, shots missin
from Afu-Ra (Ft. GZA) – Bigacts, Littleacts Lyrics on Genius
The term "snake" is used as a metaphor for someone that has an extremely bad character. Typically it was the snake that deceived Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. This may be why the word snake is synonymous with being a bad character.

Imagine an apple fritter straight from the oven oozing with soft serve vanilla ice cream. Sounds amazing right? Well, I've tried it and it is.
While my reviews mostly focus on frozen desserts you can find at the grocery store, occasionally I will be visiting one of the many awesome scoop shops we have in Western Massachusetts. I've started with Moo-licious Farms in Southwick and this was the place where I tasted the heavenly dessert described above.
Moo-Licious owner Joe Deedy was kind enough to welcome me into his shop and stuff me with dozens of ice cream samples including this donut/ice cream concoction which is as phenomenal as it sounds.
Deedy has joined forces with Mrs. Murphy's Donuts in Southwick to provide an apple fritter, a glazed donut and a Boston Cream Pie donut all filled with soft serve ice cream.
"I haven't really seen anyone doing this," Deedy said. "I've research it and found an ice cream scoop on top of a donut or a donut sliced in two and then filled with a scoop of ice cream, but no one inserting the soft serve directly into the donut."
While I tried all three varieties the apple fritter was my favorite. The ice cream was cool and smooth and melted slightly against the warmth of the apple fritter. This decadent dessert is worthy of high praise and I can already image droves of people lining up at fairs like the Big E for this unique treat.
While the donuts are its latest novelty, Moo-Licious has delicious flavors and a variety of unique sundae options from toppings featuring gummy bears and fudge cows to a lactose free pineapple soft serve.
I tried flavors including strawberry cheesecake ice cream, pineapple - orange , pistachio, coffee with Oreo crumbles, chocolate peanut butter and several others, but there were two flavors that I'm wishing I had bowls of right now.
The first is a hard packed graham cracker ice cream. Usually I think of graham cracker as a cheesecake flavored ice cream mix-in. I have never tried an entire flavor devoted to this beloved treat.
The first bite is reminiscent of the Honey Maid graham crackers that were always in my mom's pantry. The ice cream is smooth, but once you start digging in you're pleasantly greeted by chocolate chip bits, that are actually chocolate covered pieces of graham crackers. What's awesome is that the graham crackers manage to remain crunchy inside the chocolate coating. The ice cream also has a graham cracker swirl which adds a nice gritty texture. While this ice cream is amazing on it's own, apparently there is an even better combination come fall– a scoop of the graham cracker ice cream with a scoop of pumpkin ice cream. I will definitely be back to try that.
The second flavor that got me swooning was the shop's Grasshopper ice cream, a creme de menthe ice cream base with chocolate chips and Oreo cookie crumbles.
What I loved about this flavor was the subtle taste of the mint ice cream. Often times mint ice cream can be so powerful its hard to taste anything else, but this is a soft mint, which reminds me of a Thin Mint cookie. And speaking of Thin Mints, the shop also has a variety of hard shell toppings for soft serve ice creams including a coconut caramel shell that tastes just like a Girl Scout Caramel deLites cookie. It was amazing.
The shop, which was originally in Springfield on Dickinson Street, has been in Southwick for more than a year and also features a small farm with goats and rabbits. Every Monday the Forest Park Zoo on the Go makes a visit.
Deedy said his next goal is to offer homemade ice cream. The shop is open daily from 11 a.m.-9:30 p.m.

There's no shortage of reasons why Brandon Dubinsky wants to forget the 2011-12 regular season.
The Rangers forward started the campaign with a 14-game goalless drought, dropping from the second to fourth line in the process. In November, he drew headlines for calling Philadelphia's Jody Shelley a "terrible hockey player." At February's trade deadline, he was rumored to be part of a package deal for Columbus' Rick Nash and after the deal didn't go through, he found himself in John Tortorella's doghouse after taking a series of bad penalties.
He finished the year with just 10 goals and 34 points, way off last year's career highs of 24 and 54.
No surprise, then, that Dubinsky wants to start anew when the Rangers take on the Senators in the opening round of the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs.
"In all reality it's been a nightmare of a year for me," Dubinsky told the New York Times. "You have expectations for yourself and when you don't meet those expectations, it weighs and it kind of builds — it continues to build and build and build. It's tough. But this is a great opportunity for me, and it's a clean slate.
"The guys around me have picked me up and have played well enough to put us in a great position to have home-ice advantage. That gives me a little extra motivation to come out and make an impact."
Though his postseason experience is somewhat limited, Dubinsky's been a great playoff performer for the Rangers. He has 15 points in 22 career games and the New York Post's Larry Brooks said he was the team's best forward in a five-game loss to the Capitals.
While Tortorella has been hard on the 26-year-old this season, he knows he'll need Dubinsky to step up this postseason.
"This is an important time for him, because Dubie cares," Tortorella said. "I think he really wants to try to help the team. He's a type of player in the playoffs that can get us to the next level."

Would be nice to have dubi contribute but if he fails to show up, as he has all year , the rest of the "beast of the East" will carry him. Rangers in 5
- barkar942 - Apr 10, 2012 at 3:44 PM
Dubs has looked much more consistent over the last games since he was nailed to the bench by Torts the last time in Toronto. I hope for his sake that he just goes out and keeps it simple and loose.
Go Rangers!

But, my bad. I think I quoted the wrong post.
Talking about this post by Teeray:
"Ford had us drafting McDermott and PJ in the 1st.
We would have two amazing shooters at least, might not be able to guard anyone, but we could jack up some threes.
Seriously though, that wouldn't be the worst first round"
PJ can play defense as well.. Well at least he did at UNC

How rigorous testing helped Marriott deploy responsive design
By Mark Hamstra
August 15, 2014
The global hotel concern just unlocked most of the responsively designed pages in June after extensive testing helped uncover some flaws in the original design. Now about 90 percent of Marriott's Web pages use responsive design, including the path to booking and most of the key pages consumers use for research.
"There are still some performance issues, so we're still working on trying to improve performance, especially around things like large pictures," said Lee Carson, senior manager of digital experiments at Marriott International, Bethesda, MD.
Mr. Carson spoke at a session called "How to Scale Your Optimization Program Across Business Units and Brands" at eTail East 2014 in Philadelphia.
Marriott only generates a very small percentage of its $2.6 billion in annual revenues via mobile, Mr. Carson said.
"For mobile, it's really more about people looking for information," he said.
The company has seen "tremendous growth" in tablet use, however.
"We are starting to see some of the desktop business migrate to tablets," Mr. Carson said.
Lee Carson
While the mobile Web is not a key business center for Marriott, the company does have a very large base of rewards-program members who use its mobile app.
Testing, testing
Marriott's digital testing team was launched in 2005 and now conducts about 60 tests a year. It helped Marriott implement responsive design by uncovering some flaws in the ways the home page was rendering on mobile.
For example, it found that a key menu on the home page was obscured on mobile with responsive design during early testing.
"We saw a dramatic decrease in click-throughs to reservations," Mr. Carson said.
Among the links that were obscured before the site was released to the public was a link to group bookings, which is a key revenue generator for Marriott.
The end result on Marriott's testing of responsive Web design was that it was neutral in terms of its impact on customer draw.
Other functions that the testing team has experimented with include digital advertising effectiveness and the rendering of photography on the Web site.
Mr. Carson said one of the keys to testing digital functionality and new digital products is to maintain a highly disciplined process for conducting tests. Marriott deviated from that process as it ramped up its testing, and had to return to the rigorous testing procedures that produce actionable results.
One of the challenges, he said, is that digital product teams often take testing lightly, but the testers themselves need to maintain a high level of discipline.
"Now, our tests are more rigorous than a product launch," Mr. Carson said.
His first recommendation for marketers testing new digital products was to focus on the tiniest details, or as he put it, "sweat the small stuff. He also recommended planning for the future of where the business is headed, and maintaining a focus on the business goals.
"It's easy to drive clicks," Mr. Carson said. "It's much harder to drive revenues."
Final Take

2014 TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver Review
New TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver: $299.99
The TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver is the first driver in TaylorMade's line to incorporate its revolutionary speed-pocket technology, which the company uses in iron sets such as the RocketBlade and SpeedBlade. TaylorMade's speed pocket is most often associated with increased distance. However, with the JetSpeed Driver, the speed pocket allows for both increased distance and greater forgiveness on shots hit low on the face.
If you are a player looking for a higher launch angle and great forgiveness, this is the club for you — but don't go to the JetSpeed looking for a big increase in distance.
The TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver follows in the line of its Rocketballz and Rocketballz Stage 2 drivers. And they're all offered about the same price point.
But the JetSpeed Driver allows players to launch the ball higher and with less spin than the Rocketballz drivers. Meanwhile, the TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver measures in at a length of 46 inches with a total weight of 299 grams, making it a long and lightweight driver. The JetSpeed Driver also offers loft adjustability up to a range of 3 degrees, or up or down 1.5 degrees from the driver's listed loft numbers.
With the JetSpeed driver, TaylorMade continues to move the CG (center of gravity) lower and more forward in the clubhead. Due to the CG's forward movement, most players will need to play a higher-lofted driver than they normally use.
no images were found
Look (4 out of 5 stars)
TaylorMade notably makes a return to a more traditional clubhead with the JetSpeed Driver. After many years of white clubheads and creative designs, such as the racing stripe on the R1, the TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver has an appealing black and gray finish that looks great at address. The matte finish reduces glare off the clubhead, too. The sole of the club, though, is rather simple looking, with no movable-weight technology.
no images were found
Performance (3.5 out of 5 stars)
When I first hit the TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver, I was asked by a TaylorMade representative what loft I play on my current driver. I responded by telling him that I normally play a 9.5 degree, and he replied that I should test out the 10.5 degree driver. As I stated above, the movement of CG more forward in the face will often require a higher loft, resulting in TaylorMade's new "loft-up" catchphrase. When hitting the JetSpeed Driver, I had a very nice launch angle that was higher than my current driver.
no images were found
The driver had some nice forgiveness on balls mishit towards the toe and low on the face. I didn't notice any major change in distance. It fell right in line with how far I normally hit my driver.
no images were found
Final Thoughts
Overall, the TaylorMade JetSpeed Driver has a large sweet spot that allows for very nice forgiveness. If you are a player looking for a higher launch angle and great forgiveness, this is the club for you — but don't go to the JetSpeed looking for a big increase in distance.

Cap D'agde Cap D'agde , France
Cap D'agde
This is actually a private area, but anyone can visit via the public beach!
This famous "naked city" offers nude banking, nude shopping and nude dining along with a lovely beach that's about three miles long. The beach is almost entirely nude. You'll find the occasional clothed gawker, but they are few and far between. Cap D'agde boasts three major hotel complexes, camp grounds and villas that are available for rent. The majority of guests are French (the resort being located in France and all) so although you can get by in many French cities speaking English, a lack of knowledge of the French language will be a definate drawback at this resort.
This huge resort complex is about an hour's drive from Montpellier, France.

Facts on Antimony
Antimony is a metal which occurs naturally in the earth's crust. The product is sold commercially in the form of grey, odourless pieces of metal in massive form and occasionally in powder form. Most of the antimony mined today comes from China, which supplies approximately 90% of the world's total. In 2010, the total global volume of antimony production was approximately 167,0001 metric tonnes.
Antimony Prices
The price of antimony has increased significantly over the past few years.Antimony Facts4
Antimony (atomic number 51 and atomic weight 121.76) is located in period 5 group 11 (or VA), of the periodic table of the elements and is, in appearance a lustrous tin-white metal. Although it is usually described as a metal, it possesses mixed metallic and non-metallic characteristics and is more properly described as a semi metal or metalloid. Unlike typical metals, it is not malleable, but hard and brittle and can be crushed to a powder. Compared with metals, antimony is a poor conductor of electricity and heat. (source)
Antimony Uses - Worldwide
World Antimony Uses in 20004
US Antimony Uses in 20004
Antimony worldwide is used primarily as a flame retardant and as an alloy in batteries, with a wide variety of other minor uses, including munitions, solder, ceramics and others.
Antimony Uses - USA
Antimony trioxide, which in 2010 represented approximately 75%(1) of reported antimony consumed in the US, is used in a wide variety of industrial applications, principally as a synergist with flame retardant chemicals and as a catalyst in the manufacture of polyester (PET)2.
Flame retardant uses3:
- TVs, computers and household appliances
- Industrial electrical installations, optical cables, main adapters and portable electronics
- Plastic casings, resin circuit boards, switches and components
- Upholstered furniture, insulation and decorative foams and building materials
- Clothing, hospital linen and technical fire-resistant textiles
- Seats, cables and plastic structures in motor vehicles
Antimony metal, which in 2010 represented approximately 15%1 of reported antimony consumed in the US, is a highly crystalline metalloid that gives metal its hardness and a much better and sharper cast.2
Other minor uses of antimony include2:
- Semiconductors and recordable media
- Welding and soldering products
- Components of motor vehicles, machinery, mechanical appliances, electrical
Antimony Production & Reserves
World Antimony Production in 20104
World Antimony Reserves by Country4
According to the US Geological Survey, China dominates the world production of antimony. Estimated metric tons of antimony produces and in reserves by country for 2010 are illustrated in Table 1.
Antimony Market Factors6
Supply from China is declining due to the Chinese government:
- reducing the number of antimony miners and smelters;
- declaring antimony as a strategic mental; and
- imposing antimony production quotas since 2009.
In 2010, the USGS reported7 that two actions caused production reductions in China, the worlds leading antimony producer. In March, the Government stated it would not approve any new projects for antimony before June 30, 2011; also in March, the Government shut down about 100 antimony smelters in Chinas dominant antimony-producing region, an action aimed at closing illegal mines and curbing pollution.
Global Demand is increasing as the:
- Chinese economy continues to grow at approximately 10% per year; and
- Western world is increasing the requirements on fire-proofing of many articles.

The US gets most of its antimony from China.
Supply Risk
The British Geological Survey's Risk List 2011, a supply risk index for chemical elements which are of economic value, indicated antimony as the element with the highest risk of supply disruption. The list is determined by a number of factors which might impact on supply. These include:
- Scarcity
- Production concentration
- Reserve base distribution
- Governance
In the Risk List, antimony was ranked in the highest category of supply risk, even higher than rare earth elements. (source)

Student Tax Returns-Should I File as a Student? Tax Credits for Students Tax Deductions for Students Tax Free Savings Accounts for Students Other Tax Breaks and Savings for Students Student Tax Returns - Should I File as a Student? If you are a student, you may be required to file a tax return. Find out if you need to file a tax return. Even if you are not required to file a tax return, you may want to file one in order to take advantage of the student tax breaks on this page. Find out how to file a student income tax return. Tax Credits for Students You may be able to claim one of two different student tax credits on your tax return: The American Opportunity Credit (formerly The Hope Credit) If you are in your first four years of post-secondary school, you should learn about the valuable American Opportunity Credit. The Lifetime Learning Credit If you have already had four years of post-secondary education (and you do not qualify for the American Opportunity Credit), you may qualify for the Lifetime Learning Credit. Tax Deductions for Students Whether or not you claimed a student tax credit, you may be interested in the two available student tax deductions: Student Loan Interest Deduction Even if you claimed a student tax credit, you can still deduct your student loan interest. Tuition and Fees Deduction If you did not take either student tax credit, you may be able to deduct your school tuition and fees. Important: This deduction expired on December 31, 2013, so it cannot be claimed on 2014 and later Tax Year returns. Tax-Free Savings Accounts for Students There are two ways to save money for education in a tax-free account: Qualified Tuition Programs (QTPs) - 529 College Savings Plans Anyone can save money tax-free with a Qualified Tuition Program (a 529 Savings Plan). Coverdell Educational Savings Accounts - Coverdell ESAs There are more restrictions than on a QTP, but a good way to save money for education is to use a Coverdell ESA. Other Tax Breaks and Savings for Students Tax-Free Scholarships and Grants Money from a scholarship or grant is generally not taxable income as long as you are a candidate for a degree at a qualified educational institution AND the amounts you receive are used for tuition, fees, or other qualified educational expenses (books, supplies, equipment, and other required course materials). Any funds spent on non-required expenses, such as housing costs, are usually considered taxable income. Tax-Free Educational Assistance from Employers (127 Plan) Your employer can help pay your education expenses for you, even if it is not job-related. To you, this is tax-free income, so your employer should not include this income with your wages, tips, and other compensation on your W-2 form. Section 127 of the IRS tax code states that you can exclude up to $5,250 of those expenses each year. However, you cannot use any tax-free education expenses your employer pays on your behalf for any education credit or deduction.Find more information on nontaxable employer-provided educational assistance in IRS Publication 970-Tax Benefits for Education. Retirement Plan Funds There is generally a hefty tax penalty for an early withdrawal of retirement funds from a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA. However, the penalty is waived if you use these funds to pay qualified education expenses for you, your spouse, your child, or your relative (grandchild, niece/nephew, etc.). U.S. Savings Bonds You may redeem Series EE and Series I savings bonds tax-free if the funds are used to pay qualified education expenses for you, your spouse, or your dependents. In addition, you must meet these requirements to cash your savings bonds tax-free: Your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is less than the amount specified for your filing status ANDYour filing status is not Married Filing Separately. The bond itself must meet the following requirements: The Series EE or Series I bond must have been issued after 1989, The bond must be in your name (as the sole owner) or in the name of both you and your spouse (as co-owners), ANDThe owner must be at least 24 years old before the bond's issue date (printed on the front of the savings bond).Review IRS Publication 970-Tax Benefits for Education for details on tax-free U.S. savings bonds.

Bell FX Currency Outlook: Australian Dollar hits fresh highs amidst Melbourne Cup surprise hold from the RBA
Australia: The Australian Dollar saw a sharp move upward in yesterday's session as the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) surprised markets leavinginterest rates unchanged at 3.25% at their monthly meeting yesterday.
The local unit extended its gains overnight rising to a high of 1.0448 against a weaker Greenback; its highest point since September 20 to open at 1.0430 this morning. The RBA noted that "with price data slightly higher than expected and recent information on the world economy slightly more positive, the stance of monetary policy was appropriate for the time being".
With key domestic labour market and wage data due before year end, a rate cut for December could still be a possibility. With a general "risk on"tone in markets and no domestic data due for release today, we expect the dollar to fluctuate around current levels as markets await the outcome of the US Presidential election this morning.
Majors: Relatively poor European data was overlooked as markets appear to be pricing in an Obama win. US equity markets rose solidly, along with bond yields and commodity prices - all consistent with an Obama win, with Ben Bernanke remaining as the Fed Chairman and loose monetary policy continuing.
The election result will be a positive for markets, although the looming fiscal cliff remains a concern. The S&P 500 rose 1.0% to 1,431 with the DJIA ending 1.2% higher at 13,536. Poor data out of the Eurozone and UK overnight suggesting the regions could be headed for a double dip recession was overlooked as the French Government announced EUR 20bn in business friendly tax policies boosting risk appetite.
The Euro Stoxx rose 0.7% to 2,536 with the German DAX ending 0.7% to 7,378. Oil prices ended higher amidst the risk on tone, Brent rose 3.1% to USD 110.9 per barrel and WTI rose 3.3% to USD 88.4 per barrel. Spot gold prices rose 1.8% to USD 1,715 per ounce with metals and commodities broadly stronger.Economic Calendar7 NOV NZ RBNZ Financial Stability ReportEU Sep SalesEU Issues autumn economic forecastEU Merkel speakingGE Sep Industrials productionUK Oct BRC shop price index %yrUS Sep consumer credit $bn

A bill in Uganda which would see gay people being executed has led to protests and public calls for it to be rejected.
America, France and the UK have already expressed concern over the bill, which would create a new crime of "aggravated homosexuality".
It would mean death or life imprisonment for those convicted of homosexuality. Those found guilty of "promoting" homosexuality would also received harsh punishments.
On Saturday, around 40 activists, including John Bosco Nyombi, the gay Ugandan man who recently won his asylum fight, protested outside Ugandan House in central London.
MEP Michael Cashman, the co-president of the European Parliament's Intergroup on LGBT Rights, has called the bill "deeply worrying" and said his group will be keeping an eye on developments.
Ulrike Lunacek MEP, co-president of the Intergroup said: "I strongly appeal to Ugandan politicians to be as courageous as they were when overthrowing the Idi Amin regime and not to ban Ugandan citizens from being free to love whomever they wish. Homosexuality is nothing un-African; it has existed at all times and in all cultures."
Others who have joined the calls for action are the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement and the Pink Triangle Trust.
The Pink Triangle Trust has written a letter to Joan Rwabyomere, the Ugandan High Commissioner in the UK, to ask her to bring the concerns before Ugandan authorities.
Davis Mac-Iyalla, a long-time LGBT activist and director of Changing Attitude Nigeria, has written an open letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury and primates of the Anglican Communion to ask them to publicly condemn the move, saying it was based on "irrational hatred".
Human rights groups such as Amnesty International and the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission were also quick to call for the bill to be scrapped.
They have condemned the proposed laws, saying they would violate basic human rights. Others warned it would lead to a rise in HIV infections, while some warned that other minority groups were likely to find themselves receiving similar treatment.
The private members bill, presented to Uganda's parliament by Ndorwa West MP David Bahati, means that those convicted of having gay sex with disabled people and those under the 18 would face the death penalty.
The bill also imposes life imprisonment on those who have homosexual sex. Although this is already the case in Uganda, the new law widens the definition of the offence.
Other offences include promoting homosexuality, aiding and abetting homosexuality and keeping a house "for purposes of homosexuality".
Bahati has argued his bill will protect children, youths and the "traditional family".

Paradise for some is a five-star resort with Tiki Tinis delivered poolside. Not so for L.A. designer Jesse Kamm. Three and a half years ago while surfing in Panama with her husband, the two looked to the shore and spotted cattle grazing on the remote island of Carenero, part of the Bocas del Toro archipelago. Within six months, the couple plus their friends and family had purchased 33 acres of lush waterside property and started planning what will soon be Punta Carenero, a green residential community, where owners are more likely to find kingfishers and wild heliconia plants than cashmere throws and high heels. "Everybody's going to live off the grid," Kamm says, explaining how each home will be solar-powered and have rainwater cisterns. "We all leave tracks, but I want to impact the world as little as possible." Back in California, the 32-year-old former model designs effortlessly chic dresses from natural cottons and washed silks, which she then hand-dyes with her own romantic prints, such as spring's bows and buttons. Even there, she drives a Mercedes fueled by waste vegetable oil, which she uses to drop off all local store deliveries. This summer, Kamm plans to get back to Panama to work on her own tropical pole house. "There's one market where you go to get your can of corn, toothpaste, rubber boots," she says. "I don't know how my next collection is going to happen, but I'm following my instincts, and right now they're saying I need to go down there and build myself a house."

Lovelly Collection of Photos of Airplanes by Steve Morris |
Written by Administrator |
Monday, 20 December 2010 12:38 |
We have wrote many times about different photographers and most of those photographers are focused on photographing nature, people or some similar, let's conditionally say, usual things. But it seems that, as the photographing techniques and technologies are becoming more and more available for average people, the increasing number of those who are trying to reach some attention with their respective photos have caused the appearance of plenty of styles and appearance of plenty of niche photographers who are specializing in taking photos only of only one particular kind of stuff. |

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA)
Recent reports on the prevalence of MRSA, and recent unfortunate student deaths associated with MRSA have prompted much telephone activity and many questions regarding available data in Michigan.
Individual case reports of MRSA are not reportable in Michigan; therefore prevalence rates for either Healthcare Associated - MRSA (HA-MRSA) or Community Associated - MRSA CA-MRSA) is unknown.
Outbreaks are, however, reportable to the local health jurisdiction. An outbreak is defined as "three or more culture positive cases in a facility or in a community that are epidemiologically linked where transmission/spread is plausible."
MDCH has an educational brochure and poster detailing prevention of MRSA:
MDCH MRSA Prevention and Control Tri-Fold Brochure
MDCH MRSA Prevention and Control Poster
Resource Update
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has released a new web site that will help answer many questions about managment of MRSA in Schools. The web site is listed here below. This was not included on the HAN last Thursday, as it recently became available.
Treatment guidelines for CA-MRSA
The CDC has web sites that provides information on HA-MRSA prevention and control and CA-MRSA prevention and control.
The CDC also hosts a list of frequently asked questions about MSRA for athletes.
